Abstract:	Recurrent event analysis is a branch of survival analysis that analyzes the time until recurrences occur, such as recurrences of traits or diseases. Recurrent events are often analysed in social sciences and medical studies, for example recurring infections, depressions or cancer recurrences. Recurrent event analysis attempts to answer certain questions, such as: how many recurrences occur on average within a certain time interval? Which factors are associated with a higher or lower risk of recurrence? A competing risk is an event whose occurrence precludes the occurrence of the primary event of interest. In a study examining time to death attributable to cardiovascular causes, death attributable to noncardiovascular causes is a competing risk.
